Development of an Antibacterial Finishing Progress for Medical Compression Hosiery

Medical compression hosiery based on polyurethane and polyamide covered yarns was treated with two antibacterial agents,SCJ-891 and SCJ-963, to investigate their antimicrobial performance. Various parameters of finishing process, including concentration,temperature,pH and liquor ratio,were studied in the single factor and orthogonal experiments. ANOVA analysis indicated that all of these four variables played important roles in antimicrobial efficacy. Different combinations of finishing parameters gave different antimicrobial efficacies against both gram positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus( S. aureus) and gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli( E. coli). SCJ-963 treated fabric had better antibacterial efficacy when compared with that of SCJ-963 treated yarn. Meanwhile both SCJ-963 treated fabric and yarn showed better antibacterial efficacy when compared with SCJ-891 treated fabric and yarn. The optimized parameters for SCJ-891 treated fabric against S. aureus( A: 86%) were a liquor ratio of 1: 20,a concentration of 10% of weight of fabric,pH of 4. 5 and a temperature of 99℃; the optimized parameters for SCJ-963 treated fabric against S. aureus( A: 83%) were a liquor ratio of 1: 15,a concentration of 10% of weight of fabric, a pH of 5 and a temperature of 99℃. Furthermore, two kinds of antimicrobial finishing of the fabric had good resistance to 50 times washing. This study concluded that SCJ-891 and SCJ-963 were compatible to be used in medical compression hosiery.

Optimization of Finishing Process and Energy Savings in Denim Textile Facility

Denim is widely accepted among exported textile products due to its aesthetics, appearance, and fashion. Practitioners employed several physical or chemical treatments to improve denim qualities in denim finishing operations. So, several treatment processes, including enzymatic, bleaching, singeing, heat set, and ozone finish, are used, which made this processing more energy consumption and time-consuming. Therefore, it is significant to investigate how changing the chemicals and raw ingredients could improve the finishing process, which is environmentally and economically beneficial for sustainable production practices in the denim finishing process. This study’s research design comprises an experimental investigation in a denim plant in Bangladesh. Two different fabrics were chosen to analyze, determining the potential savings of finishing on the denim fabrics’ performance characteristics. By deducting singeing and heat-set processes, the researchers ran an experimental process by maintaining the same length of fabric. Then, the impacts of finishing process optimization on the mechanical, thermal, and comfort parameters of drape, stiffness, and tear strength were examined. The study’s findings demonstrated that this experiment increased productivity and reduced the finishing unit’s energy consumption without compromising the denim fabrics’ quality. This study significantly impacts environmental sustainability by preserving limited energy resources and manufacturing denim finishing processes.
